Welcome to episode 189 of the Women’s Running podcast. I’m your host Esther Newman and she’s your other host Holly Taylor. On this podcast we talk about health, politics, stuff on TV and what we ate last night. Occasionally, we talk about running.

Running and women's safety

We’ve got some very big topics to discuss on the podcast today. We talk about the recent news of Alison Walker, who was attacked while on a run in Portugal. We spoke to Alison last week, more of which here, but since then it’s been at the front of our minds. How can we make running more safe for women without imposing curfews or asking us to change our behaviour? I would love to know what you think.


Jasmin Paris 

We then move on to the latest news about Jasmin Paris and the Barkley Marathons, because we couldn’t not, before moving on to your letters. We’ve got way too much to talk about in this episode, that’s for sure.
